Ways To Say No Resource

Hello,

Just a short blog to share a simple exercise I put together based on an Oasis esteem material. This resource exists to help groups explore ways to say no in a wide variety of situation from ridiculous examples to serious situations. The exercise is aimed to be fun at the start and a bit silly and then it gets more serious. Key to this exercise is having two leaders comfortable to act and react to the suggestions from young people. Improv skills are useful.

About Me

I work teaching Sex and Relationship Education in schools, I'm a community youth worker and I am the programme leader for foundation degree. Teaching about sexual health in schools is both extremely rewarding and extremely challenging.

I grew up in Kent and moved to Chester to study Youth Work and Theology. After I finished my degree I started working for The Light Project running the D'Biz community youth work. Recently I have also started to work with CSCW to co-ordinate and run Sex and Relationship Education in local secondary schools.
